If running is your game rather than walking - and I am talking here about the rather specialist sport of mountain trail running - then you could hardly pick a better place to do it on than La Palma.
Over the past few years there has been an increased interest in running on the island which has resulted in events such as the Transvulcania (85km) and the Puntallana Goat Trail (32km). However, these distances can easily make you break into a sweat just at the thought. Hence the idea of the shorter Aduares Run of 11km which will allow more people to participate especially as it is (apparently) of a low difficulty.
Scheduled for the 19th December, you can register at this site www.sportlapalma.com

I Duothon - Brena Alta - 19 February 2011
II Duothon - Puntallana - 16 April 2011
III Transvulcania - 7 May 2011 (be very afraid) or Half Marathon at 26k (only slightly less afraid)

Join us as we walk along the paths of La Palma including the historic GR130 or 'Royal Way' - a route of around 155km as once used by muleteers and people traveling on foot or horseback. It is very much like life itself - an experience full of ups and downs with quite a few surprises thrown in. Amazing views come as standard ... most of the time.
